Does the handles hold up well or do they break or fall off

One handle tore the first time I used it. Called customer service and after bouncing me around for half an hour they told me to send proof of purchase and they would either replace or tell me where to get it fixed. Sent. Never heard back. Great design. Lousy construction.

They hold up unless you are filling this with heavy items and pulling it around by the handles. Treat it right, and the handles will last.

The handles lasted for about 5 years on my first one, then the bottom ones started to tear away. The one that I bought this year to replace it was not as sturdy - one of the top handles started to let go the first time that I used it.

They are solid. They are one-piece handles, flatter and much heavier than the two-piece hollow handles. (Unfortunately, because of their extra weight, I find them easier to drop. I prefer the hollow handles on my original set, vintage 1986. Oh well...)

When using them, the handles will stay together, so it is not a problem. I suppose you could use some sort of clip if you're worried about it.

No. Our only concern about the handles is that they are quite short. Other than that, they are fine.

No absolutely not. The handles are rubbery..and the screws look like it's welded on so I don't think they will come lose.

the handles are wrapped with a soft spongy material that might likely break down in water. Maybe you could email manufacturer to ask this question. Good Luck!

They'll hold up fine. My 3 and 7 year olds go at it all the time. They'll get some scuffs but they keep on goin.

I have owned a few sets of these and they hold up well if you keep them clean.The most recent set is over a year old and has really not been out in bad weather.

Yes, the covers come off easily, and that gives you access to the center screws. These handles are easy to install and look great.

Very durable. I put these in the dishwasher all the time and no issue. My husband dropped a mug on our granite counter and the handle only got a slight crack, was surprised it didn't shatter.

I have had no issues with the handles getting hot. I haven't really used the pot lids during cooking, so I cannot comment on that. I also have done much transferring from cook top to oven to finish off a dish.

We have not had a problem with the handle coming off. So far it has been very sturdy.

Mine have been as good as advertised. No bending or breaking or any other issues with them. I just measure with them and wash them so I don't know how the handles would bend otherwise.

When I lift the bag off the rack the bag does not come off the handles if that is what you mean. The handles are loose when they are off the rack but that is as designed so if you want to remove the bags from the handles it is easy to do so. I am very satisfied with the sturdiness of this product.

the handle is made of composite metal. it will not break unless it is abused.

The only problem I had is with the bungee holders on top breaking. Handles are still fine, after several months of regular use.
